3DEXPERIENCE® Works cloud data management

Keep your projects on track by connecting your most vital resources - people, software tools and data - in one unified, scalable and secure place for collaboration.

Manage your data on the cloud with ENOVIA.

Everyone knows that design data is important, that’s why more companies than ever are taking advantage of managing their SOLIDWORKS design data on the cloud with ENOVIA on The 3DEXPERIENCE Platform.

Because everything is handled on the cloud there’s no complicated server set up and associated costs to consider. Not only that, there’s no data migration involved and no need to make sure everyone is using the latest version of the software, because it’s always up-to-date.

Then there’s the unparalleled flexibility that comes with instant access your design data on any device with a web browser and an internet connection…

Watch: Managing your design data on the cloud

Securely access and share your data from anywhere on any device.

With the Collaborative Designer for SOLIDWORKS role, you can securely save and access SOLIDWORKS CAD data to/from the cloud-based 3DEXPERIENCE platform, enabling you to:

  • Review tasks and open up-to-date design data, online, without leaving SOLIDWORKS desktop
  • Share SOLIDWORKS designs using web-based technologies, on any internet-connected device
  • Allow stakeholders to use your design data in the cloud, while you continue to work in SOLIDWORKS desktop

Connect SOLIDWORKS desktop to ENOVIA.

The Collaborative Designer for SOLIDWORKS role enables real-time, safe concurrent designs across distributed teams, allowing you to:

  • Manage product designs and documents directly from SOLIDWORKS desktop while making your CAD data accessible on the 3DEXPERIENCE cloud-based platform
  • Search, explore, and select relevant design contexts and perform lifecycle operations including revise, release and lock/unlock
  • Get access to the ever-expanding 3DEXPERIENCE portfolio of applications
